Simulation for the reverse extrapolation of radar threats and their verification

Simulation for the reverse extrapolation of radar threats and their verification

Sanguk Noh, So Ryoung Park

Scientific article

Various and unpredictable electronic warfare situations drive the development of an integrated electronic warfare (EW) simulator that can perform electronic warfare modeling and simulation on radar threats. This paper introduces the basic components of simulation system that enables our agents to be operational in EW settings. In various simulation of EW environments, our agents can preset their path in the existence of enemy radars' surveillance and autonomously be aware of radar threats while they proceed in their own route. As reversely extrapolating radar threats given radio-active parameters received, our agents perform an appropriate jamming technique in order to deceive the enemy radar keeping track of our agents. Based upon the response of the radar threat attacked by the jamming techniques, our agents figure out the types of the radar threat and verify its identification. For the actual and helpful information, real radars with the probability of similarity could be prioritized from radar database. The integrated EW simulator that we have designed and developed in this paper enables our agents to perform such capabilities as reverse extrapolation of RF threats, its verification using jamming, and recommendation of similar radars, and to evaluate their autonomous behaviors in a tapestry of realistic scenarios.

Hongyu Gu, Peng He, Shuxia Mei, Junlin Xie, Lixin Song

Scientific article

Co-combustion of coal and natural gas is a promising technology in the production of active lime. For this technology, proper fuel proportion of coal and natural gas (α) is one of the key parameters that requires significant thought. By means of numerical simulation, contrast studies on co-combustion with five different fuel proportions were carried out. This paper firstly puts forward the models used to describe the system based on the actual conditions. Then, numerical simulation results were analysed in detail to illustrate the co-combustion process and the velocity and temperature distribution in the kiln. Finally, comparisons of high temperature region, char conversion, length of calcining zone, CO and NOx emission and total heat transfer rate to the material bed were made in order to make a decision on fuel proportion. Synthetically considering, α=30% is a balance between benefits and costs for the rotary lime kiln studied.

Single and Multiple Hand Gesture Recognition Systems: A Comparative Analysis

Siddharth Rautaray, Manjusha Pandey

Scientific article

With the evolution of higher computing speed, efficient communication technologies, and advanced display techniques the legacy HCI techniques become obsolete and are no more helpful in accurate and fast flow of information in present day computing devices. Hence the need of user friendly human machine interfaces for real time interfaces for human computer interaction have to be designed and developed to make the man machine interaction more intuitive and user friendly. The vision based hand gesture recognition affords users with the ability to interact with computers in more natural and intuitive ways. These gesture recognition systems generally consist of three main modules like hand segmentation, hand tracking and gesture recognition from hand features, designed using different image processing techniques which are further integrated with different applications. An increase use of new interfaces based on hand gesture recognition designed to cope up with the computing devices for interaction. This paper is an effort to provide a comparative analysis between such real time vision based hand gesture recognition systems which are based on interaction using single and multiple hand gestures. Single hand gesture based recognition systems (SHGRS) have fewer complexes to implement, with a constraint to the count of different gestures which is large enough with various permutations and combinations of gesture, which is possible with multiple hands in multiple hand gesture recognition systems (MHGRS). The thorough comparative analysis has been done on various other vital parameters for the recognition systems.

Sky-CNN: a CNN-based learning approach for skyline scene understanding

Sky-CNN: a CNN-based learning approach for skyline scene understanding

Ameni Sassi, Wael Ouarda, Chokri Ben Amar, Serge Miguet

Scientific article

Skyline scenes are a scientific matter of interest for some geographers and urbanists. These scenes have not been well-handled in computer vision tasks. Understanding the context of a skyline scene could refer to approaches based on hand-crafted features combined with linear classifiers; which are somewhat side-lined in favor of the Convolutional Neural Networks based approaches. In this paper, we proposed a new CNN learning approach to categorize skyline scenes. The proposed model requires a pre-processing step enhancing the deep-learned features and the training time. To evaluate our suggested system; we constructed the SKYLINEScene database. This new DB contains 2000 images of urban and rural landscape scenes with a skyline view. In order to examine the performance of our Sky-CNN system, many fair comparisons were carried out using well-known CNN architectures and the SKYLINEScene DB for tests. Our approach shows it robustness in Skyline context understanding and outperforms the hand-crafted approaches based on global and local features.

Smart Agriculture: Leveraging Machine Learning for Crop Recommendation, Fertilizer Optimization, and Yield Prediction

Smart Agriculture: Leveraging Machine Learning for Crop Recommendation, Fertilizer Optimization, and Yield Prediction

Priyanka N. Jadhav, Pragati P. Patil

Scientific article

Agriculture remains the primary occupation for a majority of the Indian population, yet granting much emphasis to subjective decision-making of traditional farming texts will lead to inefficiency, wastage of resources, and decrease in crop yields. To mitigate these problems, we are in an acute need for technology-based and data-oriented methods that may optimize agricultural practices for sustainable development. The growing demand for sustainable agricultural practices in the face of climate change, soil degradation, and rising food demand presents a significant challenge in India. Small and marginal farmers are almost never given timely and accurate advice on crops and fertilizers, for which the farmers suffer low productivity and the environment its degradation. Herein is outlined a complete suite of machine learning-driven systems to satisfy crop recommendation, fertilizer optimization, and yield prediction needs. The main objective is to generate intelligent, data-driven recommendations based on historical crop data, soil properties, weather data, and crop measurements so that farmers may use these data to make best possible decisions. Random Forest models are utilized to enhance the precision of recommendations, achieving an accuracy of 62.67% for crop and fertilizer recommendation and 98.6% for yield prediction. By giving recommendations based on data and practice, this study hopes to revolutionize traditional agricultural methods and hence improve the farmer's living standards, create employment for others, and push the economy ahead in rural areas, visualizing sustainable agricultural development.

Smart Application for Recruiting Based on Natural Language Processing Methods, Transformer Models and Siamese Neural Network Architecture

Smart Application for Recruiting Based on Natural Language Processing Methods, Transformer Models and Siamese Neural Network Architecture

Diana Vyshotravka, Victoria Vysotska, Zhengbing Hu, Dmytro Uhryn, Yuriy Ushenko, Kyrylo Smelyakov

Article

This study presents a deep learning-based approach to automated resume and job matching that uses semantic similarity between texts. The solution is based on SimCSE RoBERTa transformer embeddings and a Siamese neural architecture trained using the MSELoss loss function. Unlike traditional filtering systems by keywords or characteristics, the proposed model learns to place semantically compatible pairs (resume-vacancy) in a common vector space. Unlike traditional keyword-based or attributive matching systems, our method is designed to capture deep semantic alignment between resumes and job descriptions. To evaluate the effectiveness of this architecture, we conducted extensive experiments on a labelled dataset of over 7,000 resume–vacancy pairs obtained from the HuggingFace repository. The dataset includes three classes (Good Fit, Potential Fit, No Fit), which we restructured into a binary classification task. Annotation labels reflect textual compatibility based on skills, responsibilities, and experience, ensuring task relevance. It resulted in a moderately imbalanced dataset with approximately 66% positive and 34% negative examples. Labels were assigned based on semantic compatibility, including skill match, job responsibilities, and experience alignment. Our model achieved accuracy = 72%, precision = 70%, recall = 74%, F1-score = 72%, and Precision@10 = 75%, significantly outperforming both classical (TF-IDF + cosine similarity) and neural (Sentence-BERT without fine-tuning) baselines. These results validate the empirical effectiveness of our architecture for candidate ranking and selection. To justify the use of a complex Siamese architecture, the system was compared to two baselines: (1) a classical TF-IDF + cosine similarity method, and (2) a pretrained Sentence-BERT model without task-specific fine-tuning. The proposed model significantly outperformed both baselines across all evaluation metrics, confirming that its complexity translates to meaningful performance gains. A basic self-learning mechanism is implemented and functional. Recruiters can provide binary feedback (Fit / No Fit) for each recommended candidate, which is stored in a feedback table. This feedback can be used to retrain or fine-tune the model periodically, enabling adaptive behaviour over time. While initial retraining experiments were conducted offline, full automation and continuous integration of feedback into training pipelines remain a goal for future development. The system offers sub-5-second response times, integration with vector databases, and a web-based user interface. It is designed for use in HR departments, recruiting agencies, and employment platforms, with potential for broader commercial deployment and domain adaptation. We additionally implemented a feedback-driven retraining loop that enables future self-supervised adaptation. While UI and vector retrieval infrastructure were developed to support prototyping and deployment, the primary research innovation centres on the modelling framework, learning setup, and comparative evaluation methodology. This work contributes to the advancement of semantically-aware intelligent recruiting systems and offers a replicable baseline for future studies in neural recommendation for HR applications. The risks of algorithmic bias are emphasised separately: even in the absence of obvious demographic characteristics in the input data, the model can implicitly reproduce social or historical inequalities inherent in the data. In this regard, the study outlines areas for further development, in particular equity auditing, bias reduction techniques, and the integration of human validation in decision-making.

Solving Traveling Salesman Problem Through Genetic Algorithm with Clustering

Solving Traveling Salesman Problem Through Genetic Algorithm with Clustering

Md. Azizur Rahman, Kazi Mohammad Nazib, Md. Rafsan Islam, Lasker Ershad Ali

Scientific article

The Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) is a well-known NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem, commonly studied in computer science and operations research. Due to its complexity and broad applicability, various algorithms have been designed and developed from the viewpoint of intelligent search. In this paper, we propose a two-stage method based on the clustering concept integrated with an intelligent search technique. In the first stage, a set of clustering techniques - fuzzy c-means (FCM), k-means (KM), and k-mediods (KMD) - are employed independently to generate feasible routes for the TSP. These routes are then optimized in the second stage using an improved Genetic Algorithm (IGA). Actually, we enhance the traditional Genetic Algorithm (GA) through an advanced selection strategy, a new position-based heuristic crossover, and a supervised mutation mechanism (FIB). This IGA is implemented to the feasible routes generated in the clustering stage to search the optimized route. The overall solution approach results in three distinct pathways: FCM+IGA, KM+IGA, and KMD+IGA. Simulation results with 47 benchmark TSP datasets demonstrate that the proposed FCM+IGA performs better than both KM+IGA and KMD+IGA. Moreover, FCM+IGA outperforms other clustering-based algorithms and several state-of-the-art methods in terms of solution quality.

Solving school bus routing problem using genetic algorithm-based model

Solving school bus routing problem using genetic algorithm-based model

Samuel A. Oluwadare, Iyanu P. Oguntuyi, John C. Nwaiwu

Scientific article

School Bus Routing Problem is an optimization problem which falls under the class of the Vehicle Routing Problem. It involves the use of a fleet of vehicles to efficiently and optimally transport students to and from their schools. To solve this problem, optimal school bus routes are found by minimizing the number of buses, the number of routes and the total distance traversed along all routes. Manual routing of school buses have led to creation of many routes, increased number of buses and several buses navigating the same route, thereby incurring more cost. One of such methods used in solving school bus routing problems is meta-heuristic method which has proven better results in terms of optimal solution and reduced time complexity. In this study, Genetic algorithm is utilized to solve the school bus routing problem because of its simplicity and ability to generate many possible solutions. The algorithm is implemented in C# programming language and tested using secondary data obtained from Ondo State Free-School Bus Shuttle Scheme, Akure, Nigeria. The result shows that of all four nodes (bus stops) used in performance evaluation, Alakure to Oke-Aro junction bus stop presents as the best route which covers a total of 69 nodes with a total distance of 34.5km. This shows that there can be less number of buses in use and reduced number of routes in which the buses are assigned.
